BLANDFORD COUNTRY STORE
Blandford, MA - On one of my roadtrips I stopped at the Blandford Country Store. I was greeted by the friendly owners and we chatted for a while. One thing that struck me was that they knew everyone that came in and talked to them like they were old friends; as you would expect in a general store.
This is a photo of the inside of the store. In the back is a deli, I got it on good advice that they make a great sandwich. If you look in the lower left corner in the white boxes, those are Mrs. Murphy's Doughnuts from Southwick, MA, they put Dunkin Donuts to shame.
This is the cafe section of the store, it has a general store ambiance with old farm implements hanging on the wall as artwork from local artist. There is even a historical wall with photos loaned from the Blandford Historical Society.
And if you just want to hang out with a cup of coffee and a Mrs. Murphy's Doughnut, go sit in the "Hardware Corner" and watch the world go by. So if you ever wander through Blandford, stop in the the Blandford Country Store.

This brought back memories. We had a general store way out in the middle of nowhere when I grew up, and I remember so well Saturdays spent going for ice cream there!
It was smaller than this one, but you could find almost anything there!
